Anchor groups are open, ongoing support groups for individuals affected by mental health challenges and/or their supporters. Led by trained facilitators, Anchor groups provide an opportunity for people to find safe community, encourage one another in their walks of faith, and pursue mental wellness. Please note: Anchor International strongly encourages facilitators to lead one of our 8-week programs prior to launching an ongoing Anchor group.
